Where have all the good men gone
And where are all the gods
Where is my Hercules
To help me fight the odds
Isn't there a white knight
Somewhere for me
Late at night I tossed and turn
And dream of what I need
I need a hero
Holding' out for a hero at the end of the night
He's gotta be strong, he's gotta be fast
Gotta be ready to fight
I need a hero
Holding' out for a hero to the morning' light
He's gotta be sure, he's going to be soon
He's gotta be larger than life
Larger than this life
Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasy
Just beyond my reach I see
Him reaching back for me
Racing on the thunder
Rising with the heat
I see him reaching'
I see him reaching'
I need a hero
Holding' out for a hero at the end of the night
He's gotta be strong, he's gotta be fast
He gotta be ready to fight
I need a hero
Holding' out for a hero to the morning' light
He's gotta be sure, he's going to be soon
He's gotta be larger than life
Larger than this life
(Oh oh oh)
(Ahhhhhh)
Racing on the thunder
Rising with the heat
I see him reaching
My world is fantasy
I need a hero
Holding' out for a hero
Oh, I need a hero
Baby
Gotta be my hero
(Ooh)
Where have all the good men gone
And where are all the gods
